Cup of Life
Crying does not make you weak
Choking on words doesn’t mean you can’t speak
Lying does not make you horrid
Being sad doesn’t make you morbid
One lie can break a father’s soul
But, 100 truths can make it whole
One slice can take my hurt away
But would be the cause of Mom’s pain
One smack can make her flinch for life
But one caress can ease her strife
You will do things you want to take back
But as a person, you are not bad
Just learn from it, make it up
And always think of a half-full cup
